Warrior - Charlotte Martin

Deep in

Deep inside the hiding places

Where nobody ever faces

There you are

Tumbling

When the world thinks that you’re happy

You’ve been anything but happy

But you’ve come so very far

It’s not so bad

You’re still breathing

It’s not too bad

You’re still hearing me

Struck by lightening

Everything frightening

The warrior

Up to ten thousand

Too many mountains

The warrior

The warrior

Shoulder

Needed several thousand shoulders

Maybe it’s because you’re older

Holding everybody up

Your friends call

You don’t have a way to stay strong

You don’t have a soul to talk to

You’re the bravest one of all

It’s not so bad

You’re still living

It’s not too bad

You’re still fighting

On

Struck by lightening

Everything frightening

The warrior

Up to ten thousand

Too many mountains

The warrior

You’ve got to face it

You’ve got to start to move forward

Move forward

Isolated

Nobody understands torture

Like the warrior

Falling and flying

Crawling and crying

It’s perfect weather

For me and for you

There’s no denying it

You’ve got more courage than

Most I’ve ever known

It’s not so bad

You’re still breathing

It’s not too sad

You’re still here with me

Struck by lightening

Everything frightening

The warrior

Up to ten thousand

Too many mountains

The warrior

The warrior

You got to face it

You’ve got to start to move forward

Move forward

Isolated

Nobody understands torture

Like the warrior
